Abstract

The pathogenesis of pediatric migraine remains unclear and presents challenges in diagnosis. Recently, growing evidence has indicated that the gut microbiota can exert modulatory functions at the gut-brain axis by directly or indirectly regulating tryptophan metabolism. Consequently, we aimed to elucidate the potential association among gut microbiota, tryptophan metabolism, and pediatric migraine while also identifying diagnostic biomarkers for pediatric migraine.
